Thank you, Lord for snow!!

As the snow falls I am reminded of God's faithful forgiveness. "As white as snow, our sins have been forgiven"! How amazing is that?! Over the many years in my journey as a Christian, I have definitly learned many life lessons (ones that I am not so proud of and others that I cherish deeply). I understand that there are many lessons yet to come:) One thing that I am confident in is that "nothing can separate me from the love of God" and that "God uses ALL things for his honor and glory". AMEN!! Satan can never steal yours or my soul (that is if you have found Christ as your personal Lord and Saviour, and have confessed your sinful state to him and have asked Him to come live in your life and give you a new life in him). The only thing Satan can do is put holes in your testimony. He can drag you down by tripping you up, enticing you, with areas of your life that are habitual and problematic, he can made you believe you cannot ever change and that your "sins" are unforgiveable, and he can make your passion for your faith be dimmed through discouragement, fear and shame so that you will not share it with others. Isn't that sad how much we allow him to still manipulate our lives? Well let me encourage you by saying that no matter where you have been, what you are doing or where you are going...God is always there and he has chosen to love you, to forgive you and provide so much for you as long as you just ask him. He is the perfect gentlemen, because he will never push himself on you or just take over...he waits for your invitation. He's never disappointed in you, he never looks down on you, or feels like your a hopeless cause. To him you are an amazing child of his, that he delights over as you continue to pick yourself up, try again, and share in his joy as you trust in him. May the Lord bless you this week as he is in mine!
